		<p>Most people using the UrbanSpoon iPhone application give their phones a vigorous shake to serve up a list of restaurants in the immediate vicinity. But now they have a new way to find a place to get a bite: aim the iPhone at the street and see what restaurants appear onscreen.</p>
		<p>UrbanSpoon, one of the most popular apps for the iPhone from Apple, is the latest to make use of augmented reality, a feature that superimposes data or information over the live feed from the phone's camera.</p>
		<p>Augmented reality features and applications, which provide a virtually enhanced vision of the physical world, have been slowly making their way onto smartphones in recent months. One, called Wikitude, displays information about nearby landmarks and points of interest from Wikipedia. Yelp also recently introduced an augmented reality feature called Monocle, which overlays restaurant listings and reviews on the camera's display.</p>
		<p>UrbanSpoon's new feature, called Scope, is similar to a periscope: point the camera in a direction, and nearby restaurants appear as colored bubbles and contain information about their distance and popularity. Tapping one of the dots delivers more details, like reviews, cuisine style and pricing information.</p>

				Newsflash, Mr. Dell: I have to waste several hours a week in order to keep my Dell PC running. I have to download all kinds of ancillary software (Ad-Aware, Spybot, AVG) to (I hope) keep it reasonably secure. And you want to mock the fact that I wanted to stay with XP Pro? I have a few words for you, that, unfortunately, can't be printed on this blog. And I'm one of the somewhat contented Dell users. Most Dell users I know (including my father, who will NEVER buy another Dell again for his law offices) are fed up with Dell and its atrocious customer service, ridiculous bloatware, etc.
